But Graendal could have told SH! Nothing in this answer precludes that.


Why not Mesaana or Demandred? Linking Graendal to this whole thing is utterly absurd. It would mean that Graendal would have had to arrive there NOT knowing about Elza, and then coincidentally delved her and found a surprise.

There's one reason why that wouldn't be true. The moment Graendal channeled to remove the compulsion, Semi would have sensed her. She would have suspected FS involvement in her escape, and smelled a trap.


Lol. You mean with dozens of Aes Sedai on the estate, Semirhage would have been surprised to sense saidar? As if Graendal would be clumsy enough to not hide her weaves anyway.


Graendal could have known for a long time that Elza was under a Compulsion and just never cared to do anything about it since this Compulsion actually forwarded the goals of the DO, or at least didn't hinder them.

It's as simple as she mentioned that Elza would be a poor tool unless it was removed ... I mainly have a hard time believing that SH can now magically implant AoL weaves into peoples heads.

Elza's Compulsion - 14/01/2010 08:41:04 PM 2065 Views
I think Graendal was involved on some level in this part of the story - 14/01/2010 09:12:05 PM 988 Views
I disagree - 14/01/2010 09:27:27 PM 868 Views
except work with Semirhage! - 14/01/2010 09:34:37 PM 793 Views
Well... - 14/01/2010 09:43:40 PM 908 Views
SH can't channel thus can't teach Elza anything *NM* - 14/01/2010 10:20:19 PM 316 Views
Yeah, but according to BS, he apparently could "give her the knowledge". *shrug* *NM* - 15/01/2010 07:16:22 AM 280 Views
that's your interpretation of the quote - 15/01/2010 05:58:30 PM 674 Views
This and the others quotes suggest that only SH and Elza were involved *NM* - 16/01/2010 09:51:24 AM 260 Views
As I said that's certainly one of of interpreting the quotes - 16/01/2010 03:46:55 PM 617 Views
The question is... - 16/01/2010 03:59:24 PM 632 Views
Re: The question is... - 16/01/2010 04:02:55 PM 628 Views
Yeah, as I said elsewhere, would be a nice question for BS, if there was another Forsaken. *NM* - 16/01/2010 04:08:05 PM 692 Views
I bet you anything he'd giva a big fat RAFO to that - 16/01/2010 04:08:58 PM 619 Views
BS spoke quite openly about this scene, though - 16/01/2010 04:16:09 PM 672 Views
always worth a try, but wasn't he asked to be less open recently? - 16/01/2010 04:31:54 PM 619 Views
Shaidar Haran can't channel. - 14/01/2010 09:34:51 PM 1002 Views
I know... - 14/01/2010 09:45:15 PM 851 Views
I agree with you, for a related but slightly different reason ... - 14/01/2010 09:58:28 PM 941 Views
That doesn't prove anything... - 14/01/2010 10:07:46 PM 873 Views
It proves enough for me ... - 14/01/2010 10:26:28 PM 784 Views
Re: That doesn't prove anything... - 15/01/2010 11:03:05 AM 589 Views
not really - 15/01/2010 05:29:25 PM 625 Views
I don't understand your theory - 16/01/2010 05:08:03 PM 595 Views
It's very simple - 16/01/2010 06:17:36 PM 589 Views
So in other words - 17/01/2010 06:31:58 PM 715 Views
no I'd continue to insist that something disproved was correct - 17/01/2010 06:43:41 PM 614 Views

I'm talking about implanting knowledge into someone elses head - 18/01/2010 05:37:32 AM 624 Views
Here's Brandon's one answer - 18/01/2010 05:20:20 PM 655 Views
But... - 18/01/2010 05:48:54 PM 624 Views
Exactly my point - 18/01/2010 06:24:25 PM 648 Views
But by this logic... - 18/01/2010 06:50:43 PM 590 Views
Yes... - 18/01/2010 07:00:40 PM 644 Views
While you are right... - 18/01/2010 08:44:19 PM 634 Views
as we've discussed in another thread - 18/01/2010 09:08:56 PM 1032 Views
I mean... - 19/01/2010 02:21:39 PM 629 Views
Weren't they specifically called Weaves that haven't been seen since the AoL? - 19/01/2010 05:26:38 PM 673 Views
"Elza had been given knowledge of several rarely known weaves" is the quote. - 19/01/2010 06:14:22 PM 588 Views
Well if they were secret Ajah weaves someone would have recognized them *NM* - 19/01/2010 06:21:19 PM 281 Views
Maybe secret BA weaves... - 19/01/2010 06:37:42 PM 849 Views
Possible since she was the only BA in the area - 19/01/2010 06:40:38 PM 874 Views
See, I think there's reason for her presence to be kept secret... - 18/01/2010 09:10:43 PM 695 Views
I have a hard time... - 19/01/2010 02:17:52 PM 693 Views
I agree with you - 19/01/2010 04:45:59 PM 633 Views
and you may very well be correct - 19/01/2010 05:39:02 PM 844 Views
Yet Rand/LTT tells us only a few chapters later - 14/01/2010 10:27:57 PM 696 Views
Anything is possible ... - 14/01/2010 10:54:46 PM 710 Views
who knows - 14/01/2010 11:21:43 PM 671 Views
It's not all that convoluted, though ... - 15/01/2010 03:26:01 PM 582 Views
Cyndane/Moggy/Graendal it all amounts to the same in the end - 15/01/2010 05:57:10 PM 771 Views

Re: Good point! - 15/01/2010 05:30:12 PM 594 Views
I agree - 16/01/2010 09:50:09 AM 573 Views
what doesn't make sense about this to me - 15/01/2010 06:04:45 PM 656 Views
Re: what doesn't make sense about this to me - 15/01/2010 06:29:59 PM 664 Views
damn double posting - 15/01/2010 07:04:56 PM 592 Views
As it is often the case... - 16/01/2010 09:30:56 AM 686 Views
go re-read my statements and quit putting words in my mouth please. - 16/01/2010 03:59:52 PM 651 Views
Well... - 16/01/2010 04:14:28 PM 544 Views
as I said it's also possible that SH has new abilities - 16/01/2010 04:33:30 PM 584 Views

Elza truly believes that... - 14/01/2010 09:38:35 PM 703 Views
Elza "found a reason to follow the Compulsion" - 14/01/2010 11:23:33 PM 756 Views
So, it came from her, and would not go when the Compulsion was removed. - 15/01/2010 05:56:32 AM 681 Views
fair enough - 16/01/2010 04:34:05 PM 734 Views
Not quite - 14/01/2010 09:38:45 PM 711 Views
